Market Rasen Racecourse Map
Market Rasen is a right-handed sharp track most suited to nippy types of horses who can quicken away from rivals. You often seem to be on the turn before the race reaches the three-furlong straight. A long run in from the last fence means having counted your winnings, you may need to look again, as results can change.
